Hi All,

I'm trying to determine the datatype of a given column using Tcl and the 
following code snippet...

set dataType [$db onecolumn "select typeof($colName) from $table"]

Read about the Tcl substitution rules (
http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.4/TclCmd/Tcl.htm#M11 , [4] and [5])
especially and SQLites quoting rules...

set dataType [$db onecolumn {select typeof($colName) from $table}]

should do what you want. Note the {} instead of the "", which prevent early substitution, so sqlite can use the $colName as a bind variable.
